I believe the mother is some sort of new age twat who wants her son treated with homeopathic "medicine" (i.e. Water). Her kid should have been taken into care as soon as she tried to stop his treatment. Same as they do with Jehovas Witnesses who try to stop their kids having blood transfusions.

Priceless. Didn't that MMR fuss all prove to be a misunderstanding in the end? The jab was perfectly ok but everyone was flapping and claiming it caused or worsened autism with no evidence.

It was dreadful she was in a terrible flap needed sutures and I suppose I could have used steri-strips but I was a tad busy so told her to go to A&E. The child seemingly had to be protected from harmful things like tetanus injections but the mother was desperate for one.

I think this woman is just misguided and needs it explaining very sensitively that what she is in fact doing isn't in her childs best intersets. If that fails it's then time to give her a MASSIVE kick in her ****.

That happened with a bloke I went to school with.
His little sister was diagnosed with leukemia but being Jehovahs their religion said no to blood transfusions.
Apparently, after a little deliberation they decided that their religion could take a running jump and they didn't want **** all to do with any god that would let an 12 year old kid die for nothing.
From what he said to me after, friends of the family that they've known for years have nothing to do with them now because they chose their little girl over god.

As for little Neon, surely there must be some way to remove the tumour from him and implant it in the mother.
See how eager she is for her happy clappy hippy remedies she is then.

Whilst I agree that the welfare of the child must take priority as per the cases you have been talking about, I do see a danger of state intervention becoming the norm. We complain about the chav scum that sit at home and won't think or do for themselves but wait to be spoonfed by the state and yet when someone stands up and says "No" (misguided though she may be) she immediately pilloried for not conforming.

I don't think she's getting grief for not conforming with the government.
She's getting grief for being a deluded hippy who probably thinks that Himilayan bath water with and infusion of witchhazel and unicorn piss is an effective cure for the cancer that is killing her son.

Mac, I was using her as an example (there are probably much better ones) of how the individual is being forced to conform more and more with what the "great and the good" think is best for us.
